Bio
The saxophone player and composer Toufic Farroukh has chosen jazz as his favourite idiom - a jazz with the colours of the Orient, to reflect his career as an artist with his roots in two cultures, and one who is open to all the different forms of artistic expression in contemporary society, particularly dance, theatre and the cinema. A saxophonist since an early age, Toufic studied music at the Ecole Normale Supérieur in Paris, and today he collaborates regularly as a composer with the department of modern dance at the Paris Conservatory (CNR). Although resident in Paris, he keeps a watchful eye on everything happening on the cultural scene in the Lebanon. Toufic has also composed the music for several films and documentaries about his homeland, and has appeared as saxophonist on several albums of well -known artists. For his own albums, he leaves all theoretical dogma aside, assuming instead the various influences at work in his life, and from there going on to create in a strikingly tranquil manner his own utterly authentic universe. “Ali on Broadway” (1994) “Little Secrets” (1998) "Drab Zeen" (2002) "Ali on Broadway - The other mix” (2004) "Tootya" (2007) -

Merci pour votre musique ! Musicalement Léo
great job,keep up brother
Alors my friend, on joue??
salut, merci pour l'ajout! Wow, j'ai vraiment fait une belle découverte. J'aimerais bien acheter un de vos albums, mais vu que je suis au Québec et que vous n'êtes pas sur I tunes, c'Est un peu difficile. Faites moi signe si un de vos albums est en vente en ligne.
Je suis actuellement à la recherche de musique traditionnelle libanaise, mais j'ai de la difficulté à trouver autre chose que des mélanges jazz/trad, ou pop/trad, faudrait que j'approfondisse ma recherche. Si quelqu'un pouvait me lancer quelques pistes: mélodies connues de musiciens anciens ou actuels, ça serait grandement apprécié.
Hello Toufic,
What's new with you lately? I'm enjoying "Ya Nassim Alrough"!
Best Wishes :)
merci pour l'ajout et pour cet univers.........
